lately, Intel has been rolling out updates to fix the meltdown and spectre CPU vulnerability.This 2 vulnerabilities affected mostly every piece of chip made in last 2 decades which allows attackers to use javascript code to carry out attacks which in turn access memory in the attacker’s process. That memory content could contain key strokes, passwords, and other valuable information.

Most importantly all the cloud platforms are at risk as they heavily rely on Intel CPU’s. Cloud providers have been patching fast, and Intel says it has made “significant progress” rolling out updates to protect against Meltdown and Spectre.
